  • 5 Daniel Goldsmith 3rd Jun 2024

    We couldn't have asked for a better team to support the family with our Dads final memories. Down to the smallest gestures and details Dean and the rest of the Thornalley team were one step ahead of us to make everything as nice as possible.
    Thank you to all x

  • 5 Keryn Middleton 3rd Jun 2024

    A totally professional Company from start to finish, regardless of staff hierarchy. Empathetic staff without being patronising, kept us informed at all times and even when we turned up without appt managed to accommodate our needs. Dean called on the morning of the funeral to make sure we were all ok and if we still had any questions - 8.30am!
    They did a 'drive past' outside the care home where mum last lived so that the residents could pay their respects. We expected a drive around the horseshoe shaped road and for the family cars to join the procession behind the hearse but instead Dean (funeral director) exited the hearse, walked in front of it past the residents and bowed to them and the coffin then escorted the hearse past the family members waiting to join the cortege.
    At the crematorium, everything was explained to the family members that were going to carry the coffin and the whole programme ran smoothly and without incident. Hopefully they will stay as an independent C ... ompany and continue to give this first rate service. more

  • 5 Monika Shove 27th May 2024

    We were met with genuine compassion and dignity from the first meeting right up to the day of the funeral.
    I felt 'looked after' and it helped enormously. 
    All our wishes were taken into consideration and it helped make the final 'good bye' a serene but also joyful event. 
    Thank you to all of you.

  • 5 Tracy Winters 25th May 2024

    Mum arranged her funeral plan with Thornally in 2015, such a wonderful gift for us at this difficult time. The superb staff at Thornally went over the details with us to make sure mum had the service she requested. Everyone we met and spoke with were super helpful, empathic, and understanding.
    The environment was perfect, calm, considered, attention to detail, and the chaple of rest was beautiful.
    The support offered from the moment I called right through to aftercare for the whole family was excellent.
